 DEBT

 

The Company has a Credit and Security Agreement with KeyBank National Association (as amended, the "credit agreement" or the "CSA"). The CSA provides a $175 million 5-year senior secured revolving credit facility ("Revolver"), with a sublimit of up to $10 million available for letters of credit and a sublimit of up to $5 million available for swing line loans. Revolving loans borrowed under the CSA mature on September 1, 2026. At  June 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, outstanding borrowings under the revolver amounted to $60 million at each date. The unused credit available under the credit facility was $115 million at each of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company incurred $0.4 million and $0.9 million of interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.8 million and $1.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, in connection with interest due on its outstanding borrowings under the CSA during each period, including the effects of the 2021 Swaps and amortization of deferred financing costs. During  January 2023, the Company amended its CSA and related 2021 Swaps to transition the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR effective  January 31, 2023.

 

The interest rate in effect at  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was 2.47% at each date. Our full debt balance at each of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was covered by the 2021 Swaps, as further described in Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". No outstanding borrowings were subject to a variable interest rate at June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

 

The credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and events of default.  In addition, the credit agreement contains financial covenants that measure (i) the ratio of the Company’s total funded indebtedness, on a consolidated basis, less the aggregate amount of all unencumbered cash and cash equivalents, to the amount of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA (“Leverage Ratio”) and (ii) the ratio of the amount of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA to the Company’s consolidated fixed charges (“Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”).  If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the credit agreement would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due thereunder and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.  

 

At June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants, including its most restrictive covenant, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.
